Year 2 beach day
Wow, we certainly had great weather for the Beach day today! Although we were hoping for a sunny day, it may have been slightly too hot for us at times. The children seemed to really enjoy coming into school in their 'beach clothes' and we heard various stories about when they have worn their beach clothes to the beach before.
We began our day by taking part in a cool photo booth with beach props, we were able to take our own pictures using the Ipads.
We then had a chance to go into the sandpit and take part in water play, like we would at the beach. The children were very excited by this and some even said it was the best day of school ever.
Year 2 also looked at flags, and the various flags that are found on sand castles. We designed our own, using different patterns. They were really impressive.
The afternoon was even hotter so we cooled down with a story and an ice lolly! We couldn't of 'gone to the beach' with out a cool snack.
We ended the day with some Beach art and we looked at the beach huts that are found on the beach and we used our sketching skills to draw them.
Overall the day was a great success, although slightly hot!
